IronTy Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Where the F did this weather come from? 72F with equally low dewpoint, sunny with a slight breeze. This is easily the best weather day of the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Going to go out on a limb here and say that, barring some cheap torch downslope day, we're probably done with the 95° + heat in the area until next summer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ops and ensembles both don’t show any significant heat through the end of their runs. May run above normal still, mostly due to warm low temps. That puts us out to the very end of august or early September. Still obviously can get heat in September, but becomes increasingly unusual. Fingers crossed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSG Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Today has got to be one of the weirdest weather days for August I can remember. This little area of convergence has been stuck over the Staunton -> Charlottesville corridor for more than 12 hours now. Didn't make it above 70 until 11am, then only made it to 73 for a high. I think we'll be back into the 60s well before sunset. We've picked up about 0.5" since midnight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure we hit 90 + in October, and don’t forget July in December around Christmas! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty amazing to do that on tenths of a degree and only 2 years apart.. currently 59.9/59.0 and drizzle/fog. Looks like I am headed for a '2 fer', currently 66.3 degrees, which is the high for the day, been 63/64 about all day until the last hour. I'll hold off to see if the 69 from 1994 holds until morning. Crazy cool last 48 hours socked in the clouds/fog/drizzle/ENE winds here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easily could see an October with at least one 90 degree day early in the month followed by wintery precip for some places late in the month. Would be the kiss of death for winter though, so I wouldn’t root for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, hit 66.4 a few minutes after that comment, then down it went, so a new 'cool max' for the date of 66.4 degrees, beating 1994's 69 degree reading. I haven't seen 70 degrees in about 66 hours. Currently 58.0/57.2 and cloudy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up going back after Labor Day, and my nieces and nephews still do the same. I also know lots of folks throughout the Northeast whose kids go back in September.

Glad I made a switch from classroom teaching to tutoring full time… shortest summer I’ve ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
